The San Joaquin County Council of Governments and its Sacramento counterpart want to know more about the commute habits of those who travel Interstate 5 and Highway 99.

More than 12,000 north-south commuters a day use the two corridors.

The two transportation-planning agencies are trying to develop new travel options to ease automobile traffic.

Surveys that target employers and commuters were launched this week with the goal of determining what might make commuters choose alternatives such as public transit or ride sharing. The effort is part of the two agency's efforts to address the California Sustainable Communities Act. The travel survey requires about 10 minutes to complete.
